Because of a major storm, the power was out when we got to the lodge. However, the staff bent over backwards to make our stay as comfortable as they could. And they went beyond by giving us another day at no additional cost. In every way the customer service was outstanding. The lodge's natural setting is quiet and peaceful with a nice view of the Pacific Ocean. The rooms are spacious, clean and well laid out. The flooring, wall colors, etc. show a pleasant artistic sensibility. And having easy access to a clean outdoor hot tub was a major plus for our relaxation. Conveniently, there is a small but well-stocked convenience store across the street, which includes a cafe serving great coffee and tasty foods. And even more conveniently, in an area of Northern California where gas stations are few and far between, the store also has gas pumps out front. We definitely will be going back for another wonderfully relaxing stay.

We made a last minute reservation for one night on NYE. We really appreciated the courtesy call the day before to let us know restaurant service in the area will be limited. The young man who checked us in was warm, knowledgeable, hospitable and funny. He also went above and beyond to help us find a new grill. The people in the market across the street were so kind. It has everything you forgot or didn’t think of. Our room didn’t have a private hot tub but we had the one in the common area to ourselves and utilized the sauna. If there is a room available with a hot tub pay the extra fee and book it! We were so relaxed and comfy in their firm pillow top bed that we didn’t make it to midnight. It was nice that they provided the coals for one BBQ. The gas fireplace gave off really great heat. Because of the heavy rains they’ve gotten, the trails to the coast line were a bit difficult to navigate and not soak your feet. Maybe pack some extra shoes, because walks on the property are so beautiful! We saw an amazing sunset, woke up at 3am for astrophotography, watched owls hunt for their dinner in the field just outside our room and then started our New Year’s Day with a beautiful sunrise.

Great place, pricey for an overnight

Staff were super-friendly and helpful with making sure our room was in perfect condition. There's a patio with a Smokey Joe, and they provide charcoal for you to grill with. Room feels spacious with its high ceilings, everything very clean. My one reservation is that it seems pricey for what you get. We paid $310 with tax, which seemed high, even with the option of using a hotel hot tub. That said, I'm not opposed to coming back.

Don’t come on the holidays

We came for Christmas and specifically called before to confirm the hot tub was working. We were told that there would be no one on site except for emergencies in Christmas Day, but that there were bbqs and briquettes provided for each room. We planned to bbq and had brought our Christmas dinner. This is a remote area without much open over the holiday. We arrived and the hot tub was drained. The front desk said we could use one on the patio of a vacant room. We tried that evening but there were no lights on ant all and we couldn’t find our way down there. Then there were no briquettes on Christmas when we went to begin our cooking. No one answered the phone or replied to my voice message. We tried the ring camera too and no response. Luckily we found a restaurant up the coast still serving. The next day, I told the front desk (different person) about our experience and said it was disappointing. He was very defensive and a little rude, then followed me out to the car to keep making his point, even though I said I didn’t want anything, just wanted to give the feedback. Such a beautiful place— we were sad the service and amenities were so disappointing.

This was our second time staying at Fort Ross for our winter mushroom foraging girls trip, as two young women we felt safe staying at this lodge. The staff was accommodating, and friendly they were happy to recommend trails, beaches and restaurants. We warmed up in the hot tub and sauna after a cold day in the forest. The gas fireplace in the room made the room nice and cozy perfect for curling up with a book! The lodge even offers guided mushroom hikes on their exclusive trails. We’ll be back soon 💖
